Front Sight needs work
I bought the screw on variation. Which despite being screw on still requires you to dovetail on the actual front sight after screwing on the base.
XS sights video shows a few strokes of a file being required to make it fit. Mine took a lot of file work and some dremel work and it still fit tight. So tight that when smacking it on it ended up knocking the entire front sight base off the barrel. With the front sight effectively now blocking the screw hole and preventing a simple attempt to re install.
Considering XS makes both the base and the front sight that amount of hand fitting should not be required. Not to mention the dovetail design itself being silly given the barrel is tapped for a screw.
